Abstract:Palm oil valorization for the production of azelaic acid, highly demanded for the treatment of skin cancer, was performed through the oxidative cleavage of unsaturated fatty acids. In this reaction, olefinic bonds are broken to yield carboxylic and dicarboxylic acids. To do so, carbon black and carbon micrometric particles were functionalized with polydopamine to form complexes with Ru. These Ru-carbon catalysts were fully characterized before catalytic tests, where triglycerides within palm oil were transform… Show more

Under the global initiative for carbon reduction, the promotion of alkaline hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) holds crucial significance. Ruthenium (Ru) demonstrates excellent hydrogen binding energy and offers a cost advantage...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
